About
The Bund Riverside Hotel - Shanghai
The Bund Riverside Hotel sits in the Downtown Shanghai district, a 5-minute walk from Rockbund Art Museum. It's a 4-star stay with practical touches: a currency exchange desk, lift, safe deposit boxes, and a gift/newsstand. The address puts you within reach of Nanjing Road's shops and the riverside promenade.
Guest reviews consistently point to the location as the standout—close to the subway station and shopping streets, with some rooms offering views over the Huangpu River and Pudong's lit-up skyline. The hotel also houses a Chinese restaurant and a Bank of China in the same building, an unusual convenience. It's a no-frills base, but the location and value keep it busy.

- Limited English among staff — While staff are courteous, a few guests note that some staff speak limited English.

6.8Verified guest“The location is perfect, just a short walk to the subway station and Nanjing Pedestrian Street. The room was clean and spacious, with everything we needed. We also enjoyed exploring the nearby street full of local food.”
6.8Verified guest“The location was good, very close to the Nanjing Street East mall and the subway. The concierge, Philip, was very helpful.”
6.8Verified guest“Excellent location near the famous shopping street NanJingLu and close to the metro station (Nanjing East Rd). Great view from the window of the Pudong commercial area, especially in the evening—all the skyscrapers right in front of you. I'd strongly recommend booking a river-view room on a high floor to fully enjoy the view. This is very good value for the money. The deposit, a common thing in Chinese hotels, was returned a few days after checkout.”
6.8Verified guest“We had a fantastic stay near the river, just a short 10-minute walk from the famous Bund. The facilities were great, including a Chinese restaurant and a Bank of China in the same building. Our room was nice and neat, with an amazing view of the city's financial district and the Oriental Pearl Tower. The staff was helpful and friendly, and we enjoyed a delicious continental breakfast every morning.”
